Coming from a musical family - his uncle Tapan Chowdhury is a famous singer as well - Arnob completed his studies at Patha Bhavana, Santiniketan, where he met his wife Sahana Bajpaie, also a singer.
Arnob is a member of the bands Bangla and Prayer Hall. In addition, he has also released a couple of solo albums. The first album was called Chaina Bhabish and the second Hok Kolorob. A combination of poetic lyrics and sophisticated melodies has earned Arnob a large fanbase among Bangladesh's music listeners.
Hok Kolorob is the second solo album of this celebrated fusion artist. This album consists of songs that Arnob had written during his years at Shantiniketan. This album contains lyrics written by his wife Shahana Bajpai, and the songs are comparatively more melodius and simple in structure compared to his debut album Chaina Bhabish, which had a lot of experimental sounds. Among the big hits of Hok Kolorob are: Tomar Jonno, Tui Ki Janishna 2, Hok Kolorob, Tor Jonno, Bhalobasha Tar Por, etc.
